Oriental Longhairs are predators. Never forget that as you are considering how you should feed the Oriental Longhair. That may be the reason your Oriental Longhair seems like a picky eater. By giving him non-meat based foods like fruits, vegetables, dairy, nuts, seeds, etc., you may have a hard time getting the Oriental Longhair to eat.
Feeding the Oriental Longhair.
Always keep in mind Oriental Longhairs share much of their dna with the largest of felines — lions, tigers,and leopards, etc. — so take that to heart when feeding the Oriental Longhair. You won’t ever see an adult leopard on Animal Planet drinking milk, chewing grass, or eating an apple in nature.
Declawing the Oriental Longhair is a major procedure known as onychectomy, performed under anesthesia, that eliminates the claw of each toe (from the first knuckle out) of the Oriental Longhair’s paw. There is a slight chance of death in the operation, and a declawed Oriental Longhair may have a slight risk of infection and perpetual pain in her paws. This procedure is not appropriate for a full-grown Oriental Longhair and is considered an act of animal cruelty in some places (as below).
